Dyeing Day Part 3
Well here we go, I've just finished setting everything out.
Now to put the dye stock into the dye pot, heat it up, add the vinegar and then place the yarn, into the dye pot. Today I'll be using my "Brown" Jacquard Acid dye, to dye up 2 more skeins of my handspun 3 ply whit alpaca yarn. Well here goes!
Wow, the yarn absorbed this dye much faster. Not that the other dyes didn't absorb fast, it just seems that this one absorbed faster. It still has 15 more minutes left to soak in the very hot water, before I turn off the heat and let it cool down for 30 minutes.
Now I have 4 skeins to rewind and make labels for, while these 2 skeins hang to dry. Hopefully tomorrow I'll have pictures to share and listings to post.
